Re: Shedding Question

This process is totally normal. Sometimes it can take up to a week or two to completely shed. Some warm soaks and misting will help.

Re: Shedding Question

Yup. A shed is a long process with a water dragon. And it does come off piece by piece. My advice is the same as Marsha's. Make sure humidity levels are up, and he has either bath time or a large water dish to soak in. That will help a lot with his shed.
